Counselling in Preston, Lancashire
A professional Integrative Psychotherapist & Growth Coach with 7 years experience of providing psychotherapy in numerous clinical settings across Lancashire to both children and adults.
Registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy and BACP Coaching Member.
I understand that life happens, things change. And sometimes, we don't always realise that it's ok to not be ok. As an integrative psychotherapist, my approach is based on understanding your process, applying therapeutic knowledge and helping you to move forward.
It's not always easy to move forward. Often, we just don't know how. I offer therapeutic support to facilitate this journey. As an integrative therapist, I often use art/play and animal assisted therapy in sessions- and at your request, can have the therapy dog (Benny) or the guinea pigs join us in your session.

Do I need therapy?
If you are thinking about seeking therapy, it is perhaps because something has shifted in your thoughts, feelings, or behaviour that is uncomfortable for you, or because you have decided to explore a long-standing problem or issue. We often want someone to listen without judging or taking over and telling us what to do. Some of us worry that talking to friends or family will burden them with our worries or problems. What we need is time and freedom to explore our problems and find our own solutions, work out what we need to do or where we need to go next with a trusted professional who will not judge but will guide and facilitate this process.
Talking problems and anxieties through with a trained, qualified and experienced person can usually help to get clarification and resolution.
How many sessions will I need?
Because therapy is such an individual process, there is no way to tell at the beginning how many sessions you would need or how long you would choose to stay in therapy. This decision is ultimately yours.
